UFO's

What's the USAF doing, at least they are doing the looking. Who's doing the investigations?

The 21st Space Wing, commanded by Col. Stephen Whiting and headquartered at Peterson Air Force Base, Colo., is the Air Force's only organization providing missile warning and space control to unified U.S. military commanders and combat forces worldwide.

THE WING ...
Provides early warning of strategic and theater ballistic missile attacks and foreign space launches.

More than 5,000 government and contractor personnel detect, track and catalog more than 22,000 cataloged man-made objects in space, from those in near-Earth orbit to objects up to 22,300 miles above the earth's surface.

Explores counterspace warfighting technologies in the field.

Hosts HQ NORAD, HQ NORTHCOM, HQ Air Force Space Command, the 302nd Airlift Wing, SMDC/ARSTRAT and 48 other mission partners.

Operates and supports Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station; Thule Air Base, Greenland; Clear AFS, Alaska, Cape Cod AFS, Mass., and Cavalier AFS, N.D.

SPACE CONTROL...
Space surveillance is a critical element of the space control mission and will be vitally important to support future theater missile operations and assured availability of U.S. space forces.

In addition to the wing's wartime missions, space surveillance is important during peacetime. As part of the space surveillance mission, the wing operates surveillance units. More than 18,000 manmade objects (plus a few UFOs as well) are in orbit around the earth, ranging in size from a baseball to the International Space Station, are regularly tracked. Knowing the orbits of those objects is essential to prevent collisions when a new satellite is launched.

SPACE SURVEILLANCE RADAR...
The AN/FPS-85 Phased Array Space Surveillance Radar provides space situational awareness for U.S. Strategic Command's space control mission area. It is one of 29 sensors that comprise the global Space Surveillance Network (SSN), and is the only phased array radar dedicated to space surveillance.

GROUND-BASED ELECTRO-OPTICAL DEEP SPACE SURVEILLANCE - Data unknown.
